@KALofKRYPTON I'm not sure if I've ever heard an opinion more wrong than saying The Lion King is boring trash. It's a fantastic movie and I will not accept hearing otherwise!

@WanderingBullet For sure. I really miss 2D animated movies. There was an art and admiration to them that I just don't feel with the 3D equivalents, even though they can be good in their own right (Monsters, Inc. probably being the best). The Princess and the Frog being anything but a breakout hit surely didn't help matters though. I hope they keep the genie funny instead of opting for a more serious version, and I should think they're doing that considering Will Smith is a pretty funny guy.

@KALofKRYPTON You can have ripoff, but that doesn't make it any less of a fantastic movie! I don't think it's dull at all, I even rewatched it earlier this year and time flew by. No amount of undeserved trashing of The Lion King will change my mind!

@jacobia Welcome to the forums! Thanks for the recommendation, I too like a good horror movie. I feel horror movies these either rely on gore. It is rare that I'm actually spooked film in recent times, the most recent one was The Quiet Place which I thought was very effective at what it set out to do

Johnny: This? Well, I can make a hat; I can make a brooch; I can make a pterodactyl!
